The idea for this piece began to manifest itself early in the fall of 2000, with the original sketches following soon thereafter. I had intended to create a work that would depict different episodes in a day of war. By spring of 2001, the project had been moved to the back burner with no definite plans for completion. The following fall, I was able to revisit my sketches. Work had resumed for only a couple of weeks when our nation was struck by the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The flood of emotions that followed fueled my desire to see this project come to fruition. Focusing the direction of the project became increasingly difficult as the piece began to morph into something completely different than what had been originally intended. I had considered changing the title to An Act of War and new sketches were composed to depict the actual events of 9/11. As I grew increasingly frustrated with the progress of the work, I found that I did not want to glorify the attack on our homeland. I then looked back at the original ideas for the piece, ...and opted not to make the work programmatic in the traditional manner, but rather to let listeners conjure up images based on their own experiences.

Roman Times by Bruce Fraser. Arranged by David Farnon. For Concert Band (flute 1/2, oboe, clarinet 1/2, /3, Bb bass clarinet, alto sax 1/2, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet 1/2, F horn 1/2, trombone 1/2, euphonium, tuba, timpani, percussion 1 (snare drum) percussion 2 (3 toms) percussion 3 (bass drum) glockenspiel). Band Music. Grade 2.5. Score only. Duration 6:30. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.S11259).
During a visit to the town of Saintes in South West France in the summer of 2003, I spent some time in the Roman amphitheatre there. It is a well preserved arena and I imagined what it must have been like to take part in the gladiatorial games. 'Roman times' is based on these images with the opening grand procession and its amazing mixture of Mediterranean peoples. The middle movement is an old fashioned love ballad followed by gladiators fighting in a very spirited battle to death or victory.

Radetsky March is probably the most famous piece by Johann Strauss the elder. His other claim to fame was as the father of three sons, all composers, of whom the middle son (also Johann) was to become world famous for his Waltzes and Polkas. Father Strauss (1805-1849) was a fine Viennese violinist and he composed the 'Radetsky' in the year before he died. It caught on immediately and became famous as a symbol of the might of the Habsburg monarchy.

"Parade of the Wooden Warriors" is a three minute piece aimed at school and community wind ensembles. It describes the advance and retreat of an imaginary army in ancient times. The composer attempted to give the music the flavor of a Renaissance dance with the main melody in the Dorian mode and the harmony moving largely in consecutive fifths.

Medium. Score and parts. Duration 5:30. Published by C. Alan Publications (CN.09600).
"Lacuna" is a solo for marimba with percussion trio accompaniment. The first section is a combination of chordal and independent stickings in the solo marimba part over an ostinato in the vibraphone. The second section is a combination of two separate melodies that employ a similar descending bass line in the percussion accompaniment. The conclusion is a reunion of themes played over a recapitulated vibraphone ostinato.
